Hinchley Charitable Trust Annual Report and Accounts 2023 to 2024 Annual Report

The Trustees present their Annual Report together with the financial statements of Hinchley Charitable Trust (“HCT”) for the year 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2024.

The Annual Report serves the purposes of both a Trustees’ Report and Directors’ Report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company’s governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102).

Since the company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors’ Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.

1. OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Hinchley Charitable Trust (“HCT”) was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee on 4 February 2005 and registered as a charity on 3 March 2005. The legal objects of HCT are: “the general purposes of such charitable bodies or for such other purposes as the Trustees may from time to time decide as shall be exclusively charitable” (the Objects).

HCT is a grant-making charity. Through its grants and partnerships with its beneficiaries it supports a variety of charitable activities primarily in the United Kingdom, and also overseas in exceptional cases that match HCT’s strategic priorities. The Trustees give particular emphasis to activities relating to the spread of the Christian faith and its potential benefits for disadvantaged communities. HCT aims to maximise the capacity of its grant recipients to make a transformative contribution to the spiritual and social well-being of human communities and persons in the United Kingdom and overseas. The Trustees are particularly keen to support smaller charities where a grant can make a significant difference to the work of such charities.

HCT focuses on the following four main categories of activity. The Trustees have chosen to support these in broadly the proportions indicated, and have adopted a policy of normally making no more than four grants per annum in each of these four areas:

Christian organisations engaged in holistic mission 40%
Christian organisations at work in the public sphere 20%
Christian leadership training
 20%
Christian work among young people
 20%

The main activities of HCT during the year ending 30 June 2024 were:

The Trustees have referred to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objectives of HCT, its grant-making and future activities. In particular, the Trustees have considered how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. HCT delivers public benefit through the organisations to which grants are given.

During the year formal meetings of the Trustees were held in person on 14 October 2023 and 20 April 2024, and online on 29 February 2024. The Trustees also conferred at other times by telephone, email, and at informal meetings.

2. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

During the year the Trustees made 18 grants to 18 different charitable organisations amounting to £157,414 (2023: 18 grants totalling £146,914). All 18 charities had received previous grants from HCT, this pattern reflects HCT’s policy to form on-going relationships with its recipient charities over a period of several years. No grants were made to individuals.

During the year the following 11 organisations were recipients of grants of £10,000 or more:

acet UK esteem £10,000
Christians in Politics £10,000
Karis Neighbourhood Scheme £12,000
Parish Nursing Ministries UK £10,000
SAT-7 UK £10,000
South West Youth Ministries £10,000
The Centre for Muslim-Christian Studies £10,000
The Faraday Institute for Science and Religion £11,000
Theos £11,414
Willowfield Parish Community Association £10,000
Youthscape £10,000

There were 7 regular grants all between £5,000 and £7,500 each.

Through its grant-making activity during the year HCT believes it has made a strategic difference to its beneficiaries and hence to the wider good of society, both in the United Kingdom and overseas. For example:

SAT-7 UK

‘Thank you so much for your generous gift of £10,000. Your care and compassion sustain and grow our ministry year by year advancing God’s kingdom across the MENA [Middle East and North Africa] even in the most challenging areas. Thank you for your precious gospel partnership with SAT-7.’

Programme for Applied Christian Education (PACE)

‘Thank you very much for your generous donation of £9,000 for our work in schools across Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch. We are very grateful for your support and the funds. Thank you for being a part of what we are able to do in our local schools. Your support is greatly appreciated and will make a real difference.’

Hinchley Charitable Trust Annual Report and Accounts 2023 to 2024

acet UK (esteem)

‘We greatly appreciate and value your support and partnership. Through your generosity we have established a network of 280 educators who are impacting the lives of over 85,000 young people across the UK. We are truly grateful for this collaboration which has impacted individuals, families and communities.’

Parish Nursing

‘We are grateful to the trustees of the Hinchley Charitable Trust for their support - this cannot be underestimated within the challenging context many charities find themselves. It allows us the security to continue to invest time adjusting and delivering the new Preparation for Parish Nursing Practice course.’

3. Risk Management and Assessment

The Trustees have adopted the following risk policy:

1. INVESTMENT RISK

HCT manages investment risk through a bespoke investment portfolio with Rathbones (incorporating Investec) and three managed investment funds to provide a balance across equities bonds and property.

2. RISKS TO CASH FUNDS

HCT’s cash balances are held in a bank and in Rathbones, to ensure diversification of risk to the current cash funds held.

3. RISKS IN GRANT-MAKING

All new charities being considered for grants by the Trustees are carefully investigated as to their financial soundness and suitability. Formal acknowledgement of all grants is required from all supported charities.

Overall, the Trustees have examined the major governing, operational and financial risks to which HCT is exposed and, having considered the likelihood of those risks, confirm that systems have been established to mitigate these risks.

3.1 Related Parties

Sarah Smith was an employee of acet UK (esteem) during some of the year. She took no part in writing the report submitted to HCT on 14 October 2023 on the grant which acet UK (esteem) had previously received from HCT. There were no grants made this financial year which had any link to any of the employees or Trustees of HCT.

3.2 Statement of Directors’ (Trustees’) Responsibilities

The Trustees (who are also Directors of HCT for the purpose of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.)

Company law requires Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

4

Hinchley Charitable Trust Annual Report and Accounts 2023 to 2024

The Trustees as Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

3.3 Small Company Declaration

The financial statements appended to this report have been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies and the Financial Reporting Standards (FRS)102.

.

4. STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

HCT is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 4 February 2005 and registered as a charity on 3 March 2005. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. The company is limited by guarantee, not having a share capital and consequently the liability of members is limited, subject to an undertaking by each member to contribute to the net assets or liabilities of the company on winding up such amounts as may be required not exceeding £10.

HCT operates through meetings and regular correspondence of the Trustees, who are also the Directors of the company. All decisions are taken by the Trustees. Responsibility for financial management is delegated to one Trustee who draws on the support of other Trustees as necessary. Day-to-day administration of HCT is in the hands of a part-time salaried administrator, who is the Company Secretary. During this year, there was a change of Administrator as Mrs Liz Daniel, retired on grounds of health. The new administrator, Mrs Millie Chander-Abraham, took on the role in April whilst allowing a significant period of handover.

The Trustees are appointed by existing Trustees. In identifying potential new Trustees, the existing Trustees look to bring in people with experience in the Not-for-Profit Sector to complement existing experience and knowledge. The Trustees are conscious of the need to provide for the future management of HCT by the appointment and training of new Trustees from time to time. All the existing Trustees have experience of the charity sector either as Trustees or as employees of other charities, and one has held a senior paid position within a charity. Training is gained through these other charities plus attendance by individual Trustees at conferences and seminars usually but not exclusively sponsored by the Trustees’ professional advisors. A record of training is maintained and reviewed to ensure a balance of expertise is held by the Trustees overall. In the light of training received, the Trustees will consider whether additional training is required for the Trustees as a whole. Two new Trustees, Mr David Leeds and Mr Cameron Howes, were appointed at the meeting on 14 October 2023, to take effect from the meeting on 20 April 2024.

HCT follows a robust policy of Trustees being required to declare interest and abstain from decisionmaking whenever grants are being considered to a charity in which a Trustee has an interest.

Hinchley Charitable Trust

Report of the Trustees and Accounts for the year ended 30 June 2024

Notes to the Accounts

1. Accounting policies

General information

Hinchley Charitable Trust (HCT) is a charitable company registered in England and Wales. The address of the principal office is given in section 6 of the trustees’ report. The principal activity of the trust is the award of grants in furtherance of charitable purposes.

Basis of Preparation

The charity accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention modified to include the revaluation of certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

The charity prepares its financial statements in accordance with the charity's memorandum and articles of association, the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011

Hinchley Charitable Trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102.

Currency

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Having carried out a detailed review of the HCT's resources and the current economic challenges facing both HCT and its members the Trustees are satisfied that the Charity has sufficient cash flows to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.

Income

All income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity.

Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a reasonable expectation that the recipient will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the control of the charity.

Investment management fees are charged to the endowment fund.

Pensions

All staff earning more than the minimum level are offered the opportunity to join a pension scheme. HCT provides this through Nest. HCT provides an employer contribution of 5% to match the contribution of employees and is above the minimum required under auto enrolment regulations. 

12

Hinchley Charitable Trust

Report of the Trustees and Accounts for the year ended 30 June 2024

Investments

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are shown in the heading ‘gains/(losses) on investments’ in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the charitable purposes of HCT. Restricted funds are funds to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by HCT for particular purposes. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the accounts.

Endowment funds represent those assets which must be held permanently by HCT, principally in the form of investments. Income arising on the endowment funds can be used in accordance with the objects of the charity and is included as restricted income. Any capital gains or losses arising on the investments form part of the fund. Investment management charges and legal advice relating to the fund are charged against the fund. The Trustees have discretion to expend the endowment in furtherance of the charitable purposes should they determine to do so.

Financial instruments

Basic financial instruments are measured at amortised cost other than investments which are measured at fair value.

Debtors and creditors

Debtors and creditors receivable or payable within one year of the reporting date are carried at their transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost less any impairment.

Critical accounting estimates and judgement

In the application of the HCT's accounting policies, the Trustees is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are outlined below.

Recoverable value of debtors

HCT makes an estimate of the recoverable value of debtors. When assessing impairment of debtors, management considers factors including the current credit rating of the debtor, the ageing profile of debtors and historical experience.
